$oturdoy, Dec. 5, The First to Gripe The Square He considers Antonino Rocca great athlete. He's the first guy to cry "balk" at a ball game. He blames the loss of every football game on the coach. He doubles his normal bets on short priced favorites, and cuts them in half on longshots.

He thinks football became an effete game when the single wing went out of style. He is positive Wilt Chamberlain is the greatest basketball player of all time. He intends to lay the price on Sonny Listen when he fights Cassius Clay again. He subscribes to wrest i magazines. He doesn't believe i Brown is a great football player because he doesn't enough.

He was one of the first to carry a sign into a ball park. He bets on hockey games. HE WRITES insulting letters to sports writers, but signs them. He collects autographs always tells the player he wants them "for my nephew." He screams insults at the umpires every -time a' close decision goes against the team he's rooting for. He's sure Bo Belinsky got a raw deal.

His favorite poker game i seven card stud with deuces wild. He ridicules the Ivy League because students play on i football teams. He is still sore at the Mets for trading Marv Throneberry. He only voted for guys on Star team when the buffs did the selecting. He discusses the way Willie Mays' cap flies off as if it By Jimmy Cannon were a remarkable achievement, automatically win the pennant.

He doesn't think there is a modern football player who compares with Bronko Nagur- ski. He classifies Roger Maris as the greatest of ballplayers because he hit Gl home runs. HE THINKS amateur athletes are suckers because they compete for medals. He boos every time a guy on the home team is walked deliberately even if the situation calls for it. He is the guy who shouts "downstairs" at fights even if the pug isn't a body puncher.

He considers Dizzy Dean the greatest of all sports announcers. He's always in the mob that pulls down the goal posts no matter which team wins. He remembers the Brooklyn Dodgers as clowns, but can't tell you one funny incident he saw himself. He doesn't think Al Lopez is a great manager because he finishes second too often. He can't understand why Paul Hornung was suspended for betting on his own team.

He denounces the most honorable jockeys as burglars, but all his life has looked for information so he could bet on a fixed race. I HE BOOS the referee if a fight is stopped even if a pug is defenseless and badly hurt. He never went to the trots until they i a the twin double. He imitated the way Rocky Graziano dressed when he was middleweight champion, and still favors the style. He is confident that any team that Leo Durocher manages will He booed Mickey Mantle when the great centerfielder was limping and in pain.

He thinks the hernia operation on Cassius Clay was faked to postpone the fight. He swears the jock pulled the horse any time he bets on a beaten favorite. He knows that the Mets would not be in last place if they fired Casey Stengel. He bet on Floyd Patterson in the second fight with Liston. He'll argue that Oscar Robertson is a better basketball play? er than Bob Cousy was.

He starts to sing "Let Me Call You Sweetheart" when the action in a fight slows down. HE IS SURE he would shoot a good game of golf if he ever took it up. He considers tennis a sport for girls. He considers any hockey game where there are a lot of fights a good one. He doesn't rate any football coach as competent since Knute Rockne died.

He can name the woman wrestling champion. He can't understand why the Garden doesn't use Ray Robinson any more. He still denounces the Giants for leaving New York, but didn't go to a game during the last three seasons they played in the Polo Grounds. He claims Ted Williams was a better ballplayer Joe DiMaggio. He thinks the Yankees bought all their pennants.

He can't score a ball game, but he always buys a scorecard. He still refers to the Los Angeles Dodgers as "Brooklyn."

CHAMPAIGN, HI. (AP) Shooting a torrid .605 from the field, Illinois ruined the debut of NCAA basketball champions with a 110-83 victory Friday night. The veteran mini team, paced by six men in double figures, moved to a 52-38 halftime lead and never allowed the Bruins to get within range.

Palmer Adds To Golf Lead (AP) -Charged-up Arnold Palmer belted out a second round 67 to cling to a two-stroke individual lead and with partner Jack Nicklaus met a powerful South African challenge to remain in team tie after the first 36 holes of the Canada Cup International Golf Matches. Palmer's 33-34--67 over the par 72 Kaanapali Club course gave him a two-day total of 133, two shots ahead of South Africa's Gary Player, whose 66 was the hottest round of the second day. Hitting on 46 of 76 shots from the field to establish a school record, the mini were led by Skip Thoren's 20 points. Bill Me- Keown added 19 while Bogie Redmond and Don Freeman contributed 17 points each. Gail Goodrich led UCLA with 25 points but the closest the Bruins could come was within 11 points midway in the second half when Illinois' lead was chopped to an 80-69 advantage.

The Ulini, however, built up another head of steam and moved out of range.

Orange Center Honored AP Chooses 2-Platoon Squad By BOB HOOBING Associated Press Sports Writer NEW YORK (AP) Heisman Trophy winner John Huarte, a future minister, a part-time policeman, an aeronautical engineer and repeater Dick Butkus are on the 1964 Associated Press All-America football team. Responding to the general trend back to platoons under liberal substitution, the 22-man team of offensive and defensive units is the first of its kind since 1952. While the squad chosen from the recommendations of eight regional boards gives the true picture of the collegiate scene, it includes 12 players picked in the first three rounds of the pro drafts and two futures.

Quarterback Huarte brought cohesion and startling form reversal at Notre Dame with such skill he was named player of the year by the Downtown Athletic Club. In the offensive backfiekl his mates are Michigan's Bob Timberlake, Donny Anderson of Texas Tech and Gale Sayers of Kansas. Timberlake plans to enter the Presbyterian ministry after a fling at pro ball. Fred Biletnikoff of Florida State and Lawrence Elkins of Baylor, who caught 57 and 55 passes respectively for a combined 1,838 yards, are the ends in a close decision over Notre Dame's Jack Snow and Karl Noonan of Iowa. Larry Kramer of Nebraska, who held a summer vacation job as a Lincoln policeman and night club bouncer, is at tackle with Georgia's Jim Wilson.

Both were future pro picks a year Tom Nobis of Toxas, a fine Mocker as he is a linebacker, shares guard honors with Bill Fisk of Southern California while Pat Killorin of Syracuse is the center. Auburn's Tucker Frederickson, first man grabbed in the National League draft, heads a defensive secondary which also includes iron man Clarence Williams of Washington State, premed student Arnold Chonko who made seven vital pass interceptions at Ohio State and Cosmo lacavazzi of unbeaten, untied Princeton. Cosmo is the aeronautical engineer who some day plans to his own business in that field. Coupled with Butkus at line- backer are Tennessee's Steve De Long and Ron Caveness of Arkansas all of whom barely shaded the second team trip of Pitt's Marty Schotten- Penn State's Glen Ressler and Carl McAdams of Oklahoma. Ends Allen Brown of Mississippi and Harold Wells of Purdue plus tackles Dan Rear- ley of Alabama's national champions and John Van Sicklen of Iowa State round out the defense.

But Oneonta State won a 5951 basketball decision from Sir George Williams of Montreal Friday night, and it goes on the books as a victory. The most merciful thing to hope for is that it stays in the books and doesn't repeat itself during the season. The visit of les Canadiens did serve one apparent purpose, besides keeping a few SUCO students out of the nasty outside weather. Both teams had the opportunity for a good scrimmage, something they obviously needed.

0-State coach Ed Kassler was able to give his substitutes a good workout. Kassler alternated two units through the early part of the game his regular starting unit of Frank Karins, Tom Nuttall, Jim Clift, Lee Peters and John Sbordone, plus a second unit of Bob Myers, Bob Peach, Mickey Walas, Mike Roads Halt High School Basketball Weather conditions not only played havoc with normal activities Friday, but also cut into high school basketball schedules. Four leagues in the area were either entirely or partially postponed due to hazardous road conditions. In the Iroquois League the Ilion-OHS game at Oneonta was rescheduled for tonight. With the Mohawk Valley virtually covered with ice, officials at Ilion High School preferred not to make the long trip.

OHS coach Tony Drago will start Gordy Carey, Joe Roha- cevich, Mike Belden, John Silvernail, and Tom' Cannistra. Ilion will feature Boots Day and Mike DeMartine. In the Center State League games between Richfield Springs and West Wlnfield along with Cooperstown and Sauquoit were postponed. Two out of the three games In the Delaware a i League were stopped. Andes was scheduled to play at Jefferson and Treadwell was slated to host Grand Gorge.

Both games were postponed. The lone game saw Roxbury beating Fleischmanns 76-65. The entire Upper Delaware loop was wiped out due to the weather. Scheduled games were: Stamford at Gilboa, Downsville at Davenport and South Kortright at Margaretville. Bowling Roundup SERVICE Deke Mulkins paced the servicemen with 202-159-197 games and a 558 total.

SUBS PULL AWAY Though they flicked wild passes through the air with reckless abandon, it was the rough-and- ready reserves who actually put the game comfortably in win column for SUCO. Better positioning under the boards helped the visitors keep SUCO outside during the early going, and no Dragon was able to hit from the outer limits until captain Tom Nuttall finally clicked on a pair of neat ers. The guy who figured to be the chief Oneonta outside threat Karins, who tied the school scoring record Tuesday with a 37-point effort picked up four quick fouls and wasn't around long enough to do much shooting.

Karins finished with only four points. Nuttall was high with 20. Williams stayed even and even led by two or three points at different times through the early minutes of the game, despite the fact that past SUCO teams have manhandled the Canadians. But the subs came on after 10 minutes and moved the homesters out front to stay. With transfer Myers hitting on his first three shots from the right corner and Walas showing plenty of muscle under the boards, the Dragons moved ahead to lead by eight points at halftime.

The second half produced more of the same sloppy play. But the referees can take greater credit than the players for the fact that play soon took on appearance of a poorly officiated football game played on ice in pitch darkness. FOUL PLAY Both teams committed fouls as if they were going out of style. But after a rash of (at best) dubious calls on SUCO players, Kassler was heard mumbling to himself, "This is carrying the good neighbor policy too far." Indeed it was. Time after time, after nine players had bumped heads vigorously, the referees would stop the action and signal out for punishment the one man who was nowhere near the action.

Luckily for SUCO, the game wasn't a vital one. But Kassler certainly must be hoping for better play and better officiating tonight when powerful 'Oswego State moves in for a conference game. "Just say we were looking ahead to Oswego," he breathed disgustedly after game. "It is a poor excuse, but it will have to do." About the only bright spots for spectators were the lively strains produced by the SUCO pep band and the Globetrotter antics of Davis, which included an occasional pat of encouragement planted on the rear extremities of the shorter and broader referee.

Oneonta teammates shown are Bob Myers (24) and Jim Clift (wearing glasses). Nuttall led both teams in scoring with 20 points. (Star Staff Photo) East Teams Dominate TV Warfare Tri-Valley West fortunes took a dip Friday night as Laurens and Gilbertsville dropped inter- league tests with Eastern rivals.

Eastern favorite a 1 in dumped Laurens, 57-38, while ambitious young Morris pulled away for a 5549 win over Gilbertsville. A tough defensive effort plus a 13-rebound effort by Ralph Sitts helped foul-plagued Franklin win its opener. Sitts had 18 points to share scoring honors with teammate Tom Brycbn, who had 12. Tom Berger hit 11 and big John 10 for the losers. Gilbertsville took an early lead at Morris, and the score was tied at 47-47 with two minutes to play.

But a jumper by John JVIatteson and two foul conversions by John Elliott gave Morris a 5147 lead. Gary Newton hit for the Bulldogs but a Morris freeze and two late foul shots by Tom Lyon gave the homesters the win. Matteson topped all scorers with 18 points while Elliott added 12. Tom Meers had 16 and Wayne Benja'min 10 for the losers. Sidney Knifes Forks, Still Trails Sus Leaders Sidney's adventures in "upset alley" ended Friday night, which means the Warriors may be ready for the run at the Susquenangp A i a i championship coach Doug Fessenden blithely predicted before the season.

An opening night loss to Delhi took some sparkle off Fessenden's optimism. But last night's 54-22 romp over an put- classed Chenango Forks quintet should lessen the sting. Jump Shot Beats SUCO A jump shot by Phil Dwyer with five seconds left in the game gave Adirondack Community College a 72-70 win over the SUCO JV's Friday night. Adirondack, paced, by Doug Fantauzzi's 21 points, led by two at the half in the closely played game. Dwyer had 19.

Leading the Dragons was OHS grad Chip Cornish with 18 points. Steve Rice had 17, Pete Smith 14, and Mike Telerico 10. ADIRONDACK SUCO JV By winning, however, Sidney gained ground only on Delhi; idle last night. Walton and Windsor both won their second straight games to stay unbeaten at the top of the league. Walton tripped Greene, 5843, while Windsor eked out a 59-57 win over defending champ Whitney Point.

Tom Price led a balanced Sidney offensive, canning 14 points. But the big factor in the game was the Warrior defense, which held the Forks to just six field goals. Renny Russell turned the tide at Greene with a 27-point performance, including 10 in the third quarter when Walton pulled away from a' 18-17 halftime deficit to go ahead, 3926. The Walton ballhawk also pulled off seven key steals. GILBERTSVILLE fg fl Brannick 3 0 Hoyt I 0 Newton 4 0 Meers, Tom 7 2 B'l'm'n, W.
